Design/Coding Stages/Steps

I began by creating a few pages that I thought would be most useful for investigators, and eventually pieced the pages together and rearranged them to the order I wanted. After determining the sections I needed, I found relevant photos and adjusted each page layout to best fit the content. I created a simple graphic of people for the front and back cover using Illustrator.

Favorite Aspect of Project

Seeing it come together with appropriate fonts, colors and logos was exciting- I felt like it looked professional and clean enough to be printed and given out at UF.

What did you learn while completing this Project?

It’s easier to first lay out exactly where you want each section to go before beginning. Often I jump right in without enough planning, which leads to having to rearrange pages and content. This can be difficult if the layout is dependent on the placement within the spread.
